I purchased a 135 W 288 v2 from them last month and it arrived promptly and works great.
I think they have an advertiser here on RIU that can help you.
I don't remember who, someone should know.
Good Luck!

whoa, they just replied, thanks for your time folks !! and do you think their stuff is worth it? as i'm gonna order internationally, so paying lots of money for it, i purchased Viparspectra 900w for my 48x48x80, still in the box, everyone is saying it wouldn't be really good for flowering, and i coudn't find one single bad review about the HLG 600H, so i thought i'll purchase that, it would be my first grow ever, 4 or 5 (3) gallon pots in 48x48 Auto Northern Lights by Nirvana, any advice would be appreciated.

Ya man that vipar light is a blurple the led are out of date not really efficient but the hlg is a great choice as far as efficient lights do some research about lighting ur space accurately in a 4x4 tent I'd run 400 true watts your viparspectra light only uses probably like 3-350 watts from the wall but is advertiseed as a 900w and the knew white cobs, quantumboards, are way better. Or u could run a 315 cmh or 630 cmh and would kill in a 4x4 only advise I have is to not to over think growing cannabis it's pretty tough plant as long as u ain't drowning it in water .and it's has some food to eat no pests good environment u will do great this site has so much great growers and info ask questions read read read and I will b fine good luck man bongsmilie

thanks, the spectra consumes 418 watts from the wall, i'll be ordering the LGH 600 soon, i'll use the spectra as extra in the future, can you please tell me if autoflowers do well in 80% black moss substrate as that's the only thing i found here, it would cost a fortune to order soil, oversease.

Oh and after u dig it up sterilize it bake it in oven at 250 for 20 30 mins it will kill all bugs whatever in the soil if any . it will also kill the beneficial bacteria but u can add more of those ..one thing that sucks is when u bring a outside dirt or even store bought without sterilizing it never know what is in it

Cannot say anything specificaly on vipar spectra but blurples logically are more efficient than white leds. Their umol output is same or better than white leds and when you adjust your spectrum to mccree curve they’re actually producing much more light in the photosynthetic peak points. As long as diodes are quality diodes and drivers are quality drivers, they are very good for growing.
I use white crees by the way. Just because lots of the blurples are cheap chinese shit that doesn’t mean they’re inherently bad, just wanted to underline.
Hlgs are very good too. Efficient and runs cool.

thanks for your input, it's my first grow, and i'm fighting the urge to order the HLG 600, it's too good i know, but i thought cause it's my first grow, maybe it's better to stick to the Viparspectra 900w, i'm still thinking about it.

The less you transplant into bigger pots/smart bags, the better. less shock to the pants.

I'd go straight from seedling cup/plug into a 5 gallon in a 4 x 4. No real need to use a 7 gallon, and a 3 gallon will limit your yield a great deal.

Actually ordered the HLG 600 from them myself on the 12th, still waiting for it to ship though. Got a canned response about 7-9 day lead time which I was good with. Day 13 now so getting a little impatient. Ordering the unassembled one will probably ship faster which I meant to do but when I went back to order after research I forgot to uncheck it. By the time I got a response back it had already been a week so figured I might as wait at that point. Tried to call yesterday but just got voicemail. Hopefully they are just busy.

Yes, they answer once every 10 days or so, cause they're busy fulfilling the orders, this is why i still didn't order it, need response regarding something before ordering, and it takes more than a week, the DIY kit is faster yes, but i'm ordering it internationally,so if there's something wrong i can never send it back, so better pay extra and make sure it's tested, hope you'll love it as much as everyone else did xD

I like my 600H.Took me a bit to get used to led vs hps.

If i knew then what i know now i would have ordered 2 smaller kits equaling or at least close to the 600 watts i wanted.With 2 smaller kits you'll be able to spread your light footprint across your canopy better for a little more even lighting.My opinion being that the boards are placed a bit close together on the 600H to get full advantage of all the power.

Not knockin the 600H at all i just feel for the amount of power is produces the boards could use more spacing for better coverage.

North Africa, can't be specific due to obvious reasons :p but i moved here 2 years ago, and it sucks, can't find perlit, can't find PH Up n Down, mostly they run out, did find coco bricks, but the PH is very important in coco coir, to be at certain levels, that's why i'm gonna be using peat moss, the only substrate i found that has 80% peat moss and 20% perlit but you can barely see the perlit in the soil, asked a friend to get me some, if i had access to everything i'll be the happiest person.
